brand.yml

Centralize brand guidelines in a single ‘brand.yml’ file, enabling consistent theming across Quarto, Shiny, R applications, reports, and presentations with minimal configuration.

Installation

Install the latest release of brand.yml from CRAN with:

install.packages("brand.yml")

You can install the development version of brand.yml from GitHub with:

# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("posit-dev/brand-yml/pkg-r")

Alternatively, you can install from posit-dev.r-universe.dev with:

install.packages(
  'brand.yml',
  repos = c('https://posit-dev.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org')
)

Example

Use read_brand_yml() to read in a brand.yml file into a validated and consistent R list. You can provide a path to a local file, or read_brand_yml() will look for a _brand.yml file in your project.

library(brand.yml)

brand <- read_brand_yml(
  system.file("examples", "brand-posit.yml", package = "brand.yml")
)
